This study examines both relational and personal outcomes of relational maximization and social self-efficacy within college friendships. Data from 274 college students were analyzed, including participants' orientations toward relationships (relational maximization and social self-efficacy), relational outcomes (satisfaction and liking), and personal outcomes (loneliness and depression). Relational maximization was negatively related to satisfaction and liking, whereas it was positively related to loneliness and depression. Social self-efficacy was positively related to satisfaction and liking, whereas it was negatively related to loneliness and depression. Regression analyses indicated that social self-efficacy was the strongest predictor of both relational and personal outcomes. Finally, interaction effects between relational maximization and social self-efficacy occurred for both satisfaction and depression. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
